Question

21 multiple choice 1 point which of the following is an example of hydrolysis? combining glucose molecules into starch splitting a protein into amino acids forming triglycerides from fatty acids synthesizing dna from nucleotides

Explanation:

Hydrolysis is a reaction that breaks down a compound by adding water. Splitting a protein into amino - acids is a hydrolysis reaction as water is used to break the peptide bonds in the protein. Combining glucose into starch, forming triglycerides from fatty acids, and synthesizing DNA from nucleotides are all dehydration synthesis reactions where water is removed during the formation of the larger molecule.

Answer:

Splitting a protein into amino acids
